Child Labour
Findings
• The steps taken by the Government are insufficient. • Education is must for them as they are the future of our country. • If they won’t get education they would move towards the anti- social activities like robbery, prostitution etc. • If child labour is under control then the economic development of India would increase.
Child Labour
Suggestions
• Any justification perpetuating the existence of child labour must be condemned. • Awareness to the society regarding this issue. • The Parliament should ensure that every child enjoys her right to education. • The government should provide all amenities and facilities to poor families. • As a human being it is the responsibility of each human to help people suffering from the deadly disease “POVERTY” which is one of the major reasons for child labour.
Child Labour
conclusion
“CHILDREN ARE TENDER AND FRAGILE WHEN THEY ARE ON THE VERGE OF BLOOMING THEY SHOULD NOT BE SUBJECTED TO HARD LABOUR”
